Israeli military attacks weekly Bil'in protest, 17 injured including 7 journalists

Scores of residents of Bil'in, a village near the central West Bank city of Ramallah, along with their international and Israeli supporters, took to the streets on Friday to conduct their weekly nonviolent protest against the Israeli Wall and illegal confiscation of the village's land.
Israeli troops manning the wall and its gate that cuts off the villagers from their land showered the protesters with tear gas and rubber-coated steel bullets immediately after the protesters reached the gate.

17 were injured including seven journalists. Medical sources identified some of the injured journalists as Fadi Al Arouri, a photojournalist, Najud al Qassem, a cameraman, Moheb Al Bargouthi, a reporter, and George Haltah, a cameraman.

Also among those injured was Eyad Burnat, of Bil'in popular committee, who told IMEMC "I was trying to protect one of the village youth who was attacked by the soldiers when soldiers attacked and beat me up."

The parents of Rachel Corrie, the American peace activist who was killed by the Israeli army in Gaza five years ago, took part of the Bil'in protest. Her father, Mr Craig Corrie, praised the nonviolent resistance in Bil'in and called for more support for the Palestinians in their struggle for freedom.

Rachel Corrie was killed in 2003 in Rafah city, in the southern part of the Gaza strip when an army bulldozer ran over her while she was protecting a local family home from being demolished by the Israeli army.

Palestinians seek only how to cause problems

Even so, these demonstrations did not help anyone

These are just bad

So Palestinians, look you know as well be smart and stop these useless demonstrations.

The right of peoples to resist occupation by all available means, Israel is a terrorist illegal state.

bullshit

The best person on the planet? Someone who betrayed my beloved America. Someone who hated my beloved America. Someone who aided a doctor (or pharmacist) in a vicious murder plot. I suppose you also idolize the murderer of Martin Luther King, you hater.

[KAHANEZADAK]

Of course you would. You believe that violence is the best way. You must learn to spread love, not hate; goodness, not evil; truth, not Arab lies.

[KAHANEZADAK]

Shot in the head? You are too violent andhave too much hatred in your heart. We serve the cause of goodness and love and peace when we let a Hitler, a Stalin, a Corrie, a Lon Nol leave this world. If they will not become good and honest and loving, then they must not be here on earth among the good. And I am not your friend so please do not call me that. You are a hater and I do not appreciate haters. It is a blessing from above that the evil Corrie (May her punishment be forever) is gone.
